Your $20K proposal isn’t failing because of the price — it’s failing because your consulting firm’s value proposition isn’t landing. And ironically? The same clients who ghost your $20K pitch might eagerly say “yes” to $100K — if you position it the right way.
In this video, Mandi Ellefson shares the agency positioning strategy that helped one firm move from stalled $30K deals to consistently closing $100K+ engagements — with the same clients.
🎯 You’ll learn:
1. Why smaller offers feel riskier than premium ones
2. The #1 reason your “reasonable” price is still getting rejected
3. How to reframe your services into strategic growth outcomes
4. A client-tested approach to selling $100K+ projects with confidence
5. What premium buyers actually look for before they say yes
